when i was flipping burgers at mcdonald's on the interstate, when i was working for oscar meyer, selling bologna, real bologna, by the way -- [applause] >> when i was working three jobs out of college, waiting tables to pay back my student loans, i did not think of myself as a victim. i saw myself on a road of opportunity, trying to realize my version of the american dream, pursuing happiness how i define it for myself. [applause] >> the idea that we are stuck in some station and the government is here to help us cope with it is an old idea. it is an idea that the president wants to create this new narrative said that we think if you go with the republicans, they will throw you to the wolves. it is a dog-eat-dog world, and if you want security in your life, stick with us. i tell you what, it is a false choice. it is an empty promise. if you want to look at what this false choice looks like, we have already been given a glimpse of what an obama presidency un plugged would look like. did you see that thing with the russian president? unbelievable. if you see what they're doing in implement

my daughter started fast forwarding the button watching the oscars last night, but we were watching it live. we have technology to see whether people avoid those commercials, switch to another channel, pause, and fast forward. but the fact of the matter is most people still watch the commercials live, and people are still watching a lot of television. but what you say -- listen, you have a choice. for everybody who complains about too much television advertising, too much negative advertising, turn the tv off. you do not have to watch it. when i found interesting in that open code new york times) article, there are -- in that "new york times" article, the article about microtargeting, you had one person saying that what is bad about microtargeting it does not speak to everybody. people are not going to get the political messages. maybe you cannot win. host: you have political redlining. an assistant professor at the school of journalism and mass communication at the university of north carolina, chapel hill, says, "believes entire segment out of the population of the political communic

teammembers range from junior marines senior marine leadership to what we call oscar extenders. those are our embedded navy, medical and religious ministries personnel. this is one of our greatest assets. that sense of belonging and pride helps us weather the stress of life in the corps and creates a bond from a shared experience. this year, the commandant ordered all deploying units will remain intact for 90 days after returning from deployment. few prevention efforts are successful 100% of the time, so we need a safety net. our safety net is the award winning never leave a marine behind suicide prevention training program this training prepares marines to recognize suicide warning signs to ask difficult questions like "are you thinking of killing yourself?" to care for fellow marines in destress and escort marines help. ladies and gentlemen, never believe a -- never leave a marine behind isn't just a slogan or title, it's the bedrock of our ethos that stretches back over 200 years. we'll never leave a marine behind on the battlefield. we won't do it at home either. thank you,

it is like sesame street when everyone is named oscar. how do you keep them apart? a brief family history. oaks was succeeded by his son- in-law who was named arthur hays salisbury. then there was another son named dreyfus who succeeded from 1951 until 1961 -- excuse me, 1961 until 1963. he was succeeded by another saul's berger, a son of arthur hays sulzberger, known as arthur ochs sulzberger. now we have arthur sulzberger jr.. this is not easy. there will be a quiz at the end of the elections. so, the sulzberger's basically own the newspaper, or the family. we will come to that in a minute. if you guys want to sit down, there are plenty of seats here. so we are talking about the sulzberger's, and they own a newspaper, and went on to be a public newspaper under arthur ochs sulzberger, who recently died. that became not a privately- owned company but a public company. this is interesting because it is now a public company. one of the things people are wondering is why, if "the times" is having a financial crisis -- which is my next subheading -- how can they survive

oscar is independent. caller: if you don't want to work for a union, you don't have to join the company that has the union. that is your free right. the comment about picking up a hammer -- operations in unions negotiate these things. under that stance, that is the corporation's fault for negotiating that. to think that you don't have a right, you have a right not to join a union and not to work for the company if they have a union. to take away that right would not be right. host: thank you. you have spent 15 years on this issue. tell me what drives you to spend this much time and i got involved. guest: i got involved out of college doing campaign work around virginia and i got to know some of the people during those days. i was acquitted with the notion that people can be forced to pay union dues. it struck me as ridiculous that people can be forced to pay dues to a private organization just to have a job to feed their families. the more i learn about how much money the union's final into their political
